Sum Gummelt: Palo Pinto

Since the 1970s, Texas native Sam Gummelt (Born in Waco, 1944) has a reputation as one of Texas’ leading non-objective abstract artists. He is a rightful successor of the first and second generation of non-objective Texas artists such as Toni Laselle and Joseph Glasco. His solo exhibition in 1979 at the Fort Worth Art Museum (now Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth) at the age of thirty-four brought him much recognition as a committed young Modernist painter.
